Kleinood, Tamboerskloof, Stellenbosch, South Africa, 2019

There’s not much left of the 2019 vintage that impressed so much, but if it’s an indicator of the way the 2020 from this small family-owned farm will develop, it’s something to look forward to. Blended with 14% Roussanne, this is smooth, textured and elegant with a citrussy freshness and lovely ripe apricot and peach fruit, and a slight touch of spice on the finish.
